Safety First

Suspending any object is potentially dangerous and should only be attempted by individuals who
have a thorough knowledge of the techniques and regulations of rigging objects overhead. Electro-
Voice® strongly recommends that all speakers be suspended taking into account all current national,
federal, state and local regulations. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that all speakers
are safely installed in accordance with all such regulations. When speakers are suspended, Electro-
Voice® strongly recommends that the system be inspected at least once a year. If any sign of
weakness or damage is detected, remedial action should be taken immediately. The user is
responsible for making sure that the supporting surfaces, and any additional hardware used, is
capable of supporting the loudspeaker. Any hardware used to suspend a loudspeaker array that is
not provided by/associated with Electro-Voice® is the responsibility of others.
